### 2/5 — Fun But has issues

*2025-08-16, version 1.6*

If you reach wave 15 on without any significan damage in survivor mode it will not produce more enemies. it just lags like that and if you let you hp go to half and keep that way until wave 30 same thing happens

### 2/5 — GlitchFest

*2025-06-01, version 1.6*

The title says it all.  The first few levels were cool, then it started to stutter.

### 2/5 — Sigh

*2025-01-16, version 1.6*

This would be a fantastic game if not for the jittery glitchy frame dropping stuttering choppy game play that seems to needs far more specs then an M3 max with 48Gb of memory provides for smooth playable gameplay

### 4/5 — Help

*2024-10-25, version 1.6*

Anyone beat the game ??
I’m stuck in a room with no possible way out someone help

### 5/5 — My Childhood Lives Again

*2024-04-17, version 1.6*

As a huge Samurai Jack fan, I remember playing the first games on Cartoon Network’s website over 20 years ago. Glad to see Samurai Jack get an awesome game for iPhone!

### 5/5 — How fun this is

*2024-02-16, version 1.6*

This is a very fun game if you are looking forward to a thrill of smashing and clashing than take a look at this game! I really do with that they would add more because I have already completed the game and got #1 coins and #3 gems because I have been playing ever since the game came out.

### 5/5 — Messi

*2023-12-23, version 1.6*

Tremendo juegaso me revivió mi infancia el mejor juego para Mobil.

### 5/5 — Aweosme

*2023-12-17, version 1.6*

Great

### 4/5 — Backbone controller problem

*2023-12-16, version 1.6*

The game is not bad but why its keep getting me out when i use the backbone controller?
Please fix this as soon as possible

### 2/5 — SERIOUS bug…

*2023-12-15, version 1.6*

It’s a great game and super fun, only thing is… it’s unplayable. If I die, the app crashes, nothing is saved, and the entire game starts over. ON NORMAL MODE!! I even tried switching it to easy, redownloading it, nothing’s fixed it. It’d be five stars if I could actually play more than three levels of it… I’ve played the same levels 4 times now, it’s beyond annoying. if you could look into this I’d be more than willing to adjust my review to the amount of stars it deserves.

### 4/5 — Great game the controls buttons keep moving though

*2023-12-15, version 1.6*

I loved the game and I think it’s great but after I beat the game I wanted to play one cut and when I loaded into the level all the buttons were stuck to one side of the screen I tried to fix it in the settings and I re opened the game and tried again and still no luck I hope it gets fixed soon still by far one of the best mobile games for Apple Arcade.💯

### 5/5 — Reallyyyy love this game!!!

*2023-12-09, version 1.6*

Apple Arcade is worth because of this game.I downloaded this game in the morning and just ended it.I just can’t stop playing it. It’s freaking good!!!

### 3/5 — High quality but poor designed

*2023-11-15, version 1.6*

Sometimes i think less is more for a game.

### 2/5 — Game locks up

*2023-11-10, version 1.6*

When I play the game and once I hit the pause button, the game freezes up. I can no longer play the game. i’m playing the game on an Apple TV. I love this til it freezes. Can you fix it please.

### 5/5 — GREAT GAME, I have a suggestion for a weapon.

*2023-11-07*

So remember when Jack went to Africa? Can you add 2 weapons from that episode? The staff that has the strong wood and the spinning saw thing that the invaders used. Can you also make it so you can play as kid Jack in these ideas for levels: Egypt, Africa, and the kingdom Jack grew up in. These can be open world like Genshin Impact where you can explore and fight enemies and even make friends and allies. I hope you hear this out and add this, it would hit us with nostalgia. Though I was born before season 5 started and after season 4 ended, I would still think this would be a great idea.
Ps: We would show gratitude for a joke about a skin of the professor from powerpuff girls on Jack for endless mode. I beg you guys. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 please and thank you.

### 1/5 — Impossible

*2025-04-26, version 1.6*

Don’t make Aku unbeatable even on easy mode. Video games are meant to be fun.

### 1/5 — Won’t save

*2025-04-01, version 1.6*

Game won’t save a waste of time 🤦🏽

### 1/5 — Gone

*2025-02-12, version 1.6*

Went to play and welp

### 1/5 — GAME CENTER PROBLEM AMD SAVE DATA

*2025-01-31, version 1.6*

Why THE WORLD MY GAME WONT SAVE >:/

### 1/5 — 1 star, and this is why

*2024-02-02, version 1.6*

The game won’t save

### 1/5 — Doesn't open

*2023-07-18, version 1.6*

This app is always crashing on macbook m1 pro 14 inch

### 1/5 — Won’t even let me play

*2023-04-22, version 1.6*

It won’t even let me skip out of the story mode to let me play. Deleted.

### 1/5 — Huge downgrade from 5 stars to 1 star for the battle against Aku

*2023-03-22, version 1.6*

Which weapon is best used against Aku in the final battle and he should not have fire shot attacks because when he fires them we can’t get near him sorry to this to my previous rating but you forced my hand with that battle👎

### 1/5 — Poor performance

*2023-02-09, version 1.6*

On a MacBook Pro with M1 Pro chip it runs at less than 30 FPS on average, close to 20 or ven below. It's just unplayable. This must be due to poor optimization, as more demanding games (like Residen Evil Village) run smoothly on the same hardware

### 1/5 — DOES NOT SAVE

*2022-12-21, version 1.6*

I have attempted on numerous occasions to play this game and I get super far into it and it does not save. It just says save failed and I end having to repeat levels I made it past. Really annoying since I enjoy playing this. Any fixes to this yet? Maybe a manual save feature in the works?

### 5/5 — pants down the best

*2025-04-12, version 1.6*

The game play is so fun with a controller. It doesn't feel like something that should be on mobile. But it is. And I am so glad it is. 
If you haven't played this game yet, do yourself a favour and play this game. You won't waste your time.

### 5/5 — 难得的好游戏

*2025-02-10, version 1.6*

很好玩，剧情很棒。动作流畅

### 5/5 — I’ve downloaded this before

*2025-01-09, version 1.6*

IVE PLAYED THESE GAMES BEFORE

### 5/5 — Canon ending to the series

*2024-12-28, version 1.6*

Fun lil character action game made by some former Koei Tecmo devs. Make sure to finish it before it’s randomly delisted like on other platforms.

### 5/5 — SO AMAZING

*2024-11-29, version 1.6*

Samurai Jack is the perfect game for anyone. Whether you watched the show or not (though I recommend watching it first* Samurai Jack is an amazing action post apocalyptic game. I can’t get enough of this, they should make more. Jack’s controls are pretty good and one of his forms looks like John Wick. I recommend starting at level easy and working your way up. have fun with this game.

### 5/5 — highly recommended game for hack and slash games

*2024-11-24, version 1.6*

im so glad to see a impressive hack and slash game with beautiful graphics and sound track after years and enjoy it a lot thanks to developers of this masterpiece

### 5/5 — Love the Game!

*2024-10-06, version 1.6*

No room for improvement! (Which is a good thing) So far I Rate it Five 5️⃣ stars ⭐️

### 5/5 — Exceeded expectations

*2024-10-03, version 1.6*

I thought this was going to be a cheap cash grab that targeted people’s nostalgia for the show. I’m so glad I was wrong. It’s a fully fleshed out game, that’s very fun to play. Highly recommend.

### 5/5 — AVP PRO THIS

*2024-08-24, version 1.6*

Works great on AVP

### 5/5 — 60 FPS OPTION

*2024-05-30, version 1.6*

Game runs above 60 hz on eligible devices and it runs hot. Need an option to stick to 60 hz so I don’t need to limit frame rate in iPad settings before playing the game. Really should be an option no idea why no one thought of this.
